Abstract

Given the difficult moment faced as a result of the consequences of the pandemic, the purpose of this work is to better understand the impacts of the pandemic on business, through the exploratory analysis of primary data. To this end, a primary data survey was used, starting with a structured data collection instrument and then applying elements of descriptive statistical analysis. After collecting and analyzing the information it was possible to verify that the crisis generated a great impact in terms of a drop in sales, a great difficulty in relation to access to credit, besides a high concern with working capital and cash flow, also huge difficulties in the payment of taxes, salaries and current expenses. Finally, a more relevant impact on the smallest companies. Therefore, the lack of effectiveness of the State's actions may be determinant to the worsening of this crisis.
